By examining the quadratic function of the original Tsai-Wu failure criterion for transversely isotropic materials from the perspective of analytic geometry, two of the troublesome coefficients associated with the interactive terms, one describing in...

Zweben (Eds.), Comprehensive Composite Materials II, Volume 1, Reinforcements and General Theories of Composites (451-489). Amsterdam: Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-803581-8.10352-2

The objective of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive and systematic account on the subject of representative volume elements (RVEs) and unit cells (UCs). To construct an RVE or UC, intuition has been often perceived sufficient to facilitate th... Read More about An excursion into representative volume elements and unit cells.
